I haven't heard literally anything from Luminous Witches, assuming the unit is still active? Don't tell me they failed...
>>275184250They failed I sold their gear to gypsies.
>>275184377I'm sure there are gypsy witches who really needed them...
>>275184420Ok?Strange post
>>275184412Dammit Hartmann, not now
>>275184486>"ffffucking wake up, Hartmann! The Gypsy witches!"
!!
>>275184653Nipa!
>>275184555no
>>275184250You'd have better luck asking about an actual idol unit activities on /jp/ or literally just checking their twitter, they're still active yeah;https://x.com/open_connect_/status/1869321960749940975
>>275184392This board only has enough space for one cute girl with weapons anime, and that's GuP!
>>275184940I believe that the witch and the guppie can coexist peacefully.
>>275184940>>275184971Okay but check THIS out
>>275184845I heard a rumor that Jo already retired so I don't want to give them even the twitter traffic
>>275184971Only acceptable if GuP keeps wearing their schoolgirl uniforms.Nylons>swimsuits
>>275185131>>275184940What if guppies were literally witches though?
>>275185131Pantyhose are acceptable attire.
>>275183910High quality Erica pic

Psychoanalyse me based on my top ten favourite witches.
>>275184250It's cute. Jo cuteI also love that Fumikane is making canon strike witches porn with dicks on Fantia
>>275185094Right there was something like that while ago, well even if she did retire, the rest of the unit hasn't, and they can always find replacements given it's Kadokawa if they really want to and idols are often replaceable in the industry.
>>275186169But Jo is cute and not replaceable...
>>275186218Talking about real life /jp/ idol seiyuus here, not the character itself even if that's who they represent on stage.
>>275186056>top ten favourite witches4/10>Psychoanalyse meDepends if they're ranked in order or not. If top left to right very good top picks Overall you enjoy strong women who could perhaps manhandle you, but there needs to be occasional dere there too
>>275186056I like the variety; it's not all just one country.
>>275186289I somehow doubt that's the route they would take. I remember they replaced some cast when the anime hadn't aired yet, but seems strange at this point.
>>275186378Karlsand witches still dominated it though because they are the best
>>275184412This isn't a Girls und Panzer thread, don't post this girl

I want to be free and fly in the skies...
I love the main character.
>>275192766Hikari is definitely my favorite mc. I like she's the complete opposite of Yoshika, who had been given everything. Hikari on the other hand worked her ass off for everything.
Luminous didn't even have anyone play music...
>>275193414Same. The fact that she actually had to work makes her much more likeable to me. It also helps that she has by far the cutest Onee-chan in the entire franchise
Cute.
Please never forget the witches, /a/
Fuck, I didn't see there was already a thread.The ending of season 3 wasn't as conclusive as I was told it would be. It's just another "their battle continues" ending. There is ample room for a season 4 with all the Neuroi nests left.More importantly, they never told us who Yoshika would end up with. She was shipped with Lynne in season 1 and 2 but then Shizuka entered the picture. I need to know whose tits she will motorboat.
>>275193414They couldn't make up their mind whether Yoshika should keep her magic or not and it results in some stupid shit like>she regained her magic because she heard the voices of her friends!Hikari being a brand new character allowed them to start from scratch so instead of removing and giving back her magic like the flip of a switch, she's a witch with naturally weak magic and poor combat skills before entering the frontlines, forcing her to work for spot on the 502nd, whereas Yoshika was accepted right off the bat and while there was some conflict between her and a couple other members of the 501st, she was never treated as harshly as Hikari was. Kanno is also a better tsundere than Perrine. Kanno's anger and frustration stems from the fact that the person she expected to join the 502nd was somebody who was already proven to be very skilled in combat but instead they ended up with somebody who can barely defend herself against the Neuroi, essentially making her a liability to the 502nd. as natsy as Kanno can be at times, her anger at the end of the day is somewhat justified. Perrine is mostly just jealous that Yoshika gets along with Sakamoto
>>275196507Season 3 was literally as conclusive as end of WW2 was with fall of Berlin from waving the flag in the rooftops. Sure there is room for more, that's what Kusokawa does best, to leave it open a bit but the remaining hives are just smaller ones compared to the major hive, they're just remnants remaining to be cleared out and don't pose a threat anymore, just like the little pockets irl were fighting in various regions despite war 'over'. There's no character growth for Miyafuji and Mio left with their arcs, unless of course fourth run of Miyafuji losing powers and regaining them sounds compelling and safe.Shizuka is just kouhai, they barely have chemistry together, Lynne is de facto coupling if there ever was one.
The ova is pretty great. Sure, the animation is subpar but they freaking nailed the jokes.
>>275196507I think the fact that Fumikane is drawing and posting actual witch porn is reason enough to assume that the witches are indeed dead. Otherwise they'd need to "keep the image pure" in order for it to remain propery profitable. Not to mention that Fumikane seems to have angered or at least turned away a large chunk of the older still remaining fanbase both in the east and west. Luminous also didn't perform that well since it was a rather drastic change of the regular witches formular
>>275196584It felt like they tried to pair Perrine and Lynne together at some point (the victory arrows OVAs) but then just gave up on the idea and went back to Yoshika x Lynne.Perrine is going to end up forever alone.
>>275196629Good point. That kinda sucks, but the franchise had a good run.
>>275196629Pretty much my general feeling too when looking at Fumikane past few years.>>275196655That same OVA had also Amelie anon.. who matches Perrine well with the teaching they do together to kids and all else regarding reconstruction. Lynne is just good friend to her.
>>275196629It’s not like it’s canon porn
>>275196726That genuinely does not matter to both the fanbase and companies that want to turn it into an anime though
>>275187414They make too many top tier witches >>275186353It's not in preferred order just a random selection>>275196723Amelie is cute and underrated
>>275196741When did Fumikane start drawing porn of his characters? Or is this a recent occurrence?
>>275197034Few years ago. You know you can check boorus/kemono/nekohouse and dates..
>>275197073Yeah, sorry for being lazy. Maybe the situation is as bad as it seems. But then again the Strike Witches series is always seen as a borderline hentai series. I mean just look at the manga. At least Fumikane is famous on Fantia so that means he’s still somewhat relevant. But yeah, I don’t have high hopes of this series getting another anime in the future.
>>275196507>The ending of season 3 wasn't as conclusive as I was told it would beWho told you it was going to be conclusive lmao? As you said, they obviously left a backdoor open for sequels if the stars align. There's one (1) namefag who has gaslighted himself into believing the ending ties all up loose threads and that it represents the end of the war (despite the series literally saying otherwise) as irl Berlin ended the war (even though it didn't). If there's enough commercial interest they would make a new season, but that seems unlikely.>More importantly, they never told us who Yoshika would end up withWe could get 100 seasons more and I don't think they would resolve this plot point lmao
>>275198014Yoshika slowly growing into an absolute boob fiend is the best development in the franchise
>>275184250They were at OPEN CONNECT FES on December 30. They also were kinda boring.
>>275198153>They also were kinda boringSadly matches their anime
Luminous was so boring that I could watch it only drunk. I had this routine where I would get wasted, remember Luminous exists, and then watch an episode. Watching the series became palatable, but I have very little recollections of it.
>>275196507>The ending of season 3 wasn't as conclusive as I was told it would be. It's just another "their battle continues" ending. There is ample room for a season 4 with all the Neuroi nests left.Let's look at history>end of S1>and so the Strike Witches were disbanded>but we got a season 2!>end of S2>and so the Strike Witches were disbanded>but we got a season 3!>end of S3>There's still more work to do, so the Strike Witches' war will continue>panik
>>275198600Lmao that's true

What Witch do you think has the warmest body heat? It's probably Lynette I bet
>>275204271I think Sanya, she has to function like a heat pack in the cold
>>275204271I'd say Lucchini since she moves a lot, which produces large amounts of bodyheat. Though Lynnes warmth would by far feel the best
>>275203387It's pretty much the only thing I remember, she's so fucking cute it hurts....
>>275204443>Lucchini You can also hold her closer to you than the others.
>>275204646Oi rude
>>275204691What? That's a complient.
>>275204776Lucci is a growing girl!
>>275196533>as natsy as Kanno can be at times, her anger at the end of the day is somewhat justifiedI also don't think she's cute enough to let her anger slide.
>>275205691OI!
>>275205811Sorry, I just don't think she's cute enough.
>>275204443Just imagine waking up on a cold morning to Lynne's Lynnes pressed against your face almost suffocating you. You wouldn't care that you're nearly dying because of how soft and warm the sensation is, and you want to be trapped there forever, but I bet it's a blissful experience you will never forget. >>275205867>>275205811I think Kanno is cute probably because we're both readers but I wouldn't mind hate fucking her though
>>275205867She is cute enough! Very cute even!
>>275206116Personally, I think the cutest Witch has to be Inori.
>>275206230The meeting that wasn't meant to happen
>>275206116I'd like to go on a date to a bookshop with Kanno. It would be incredibly cute.
>>275207084She'd probably find something to get upset about.

>>275208362Look at those cuties wew
Heinrike or Marian?
>>275208533Both top tier with fun dynamicCan't I choose both?
>>275208635You can only choose one. I like Marian more. She seems sweeter.
>>275208657Important question. This thread should know the answer?
>>275208697She definitely is sweeter, but I like that aristocrat tsun so I guess I'll go with Heinrike
>>275208748Don't see what's important, what difference does it make if BD is the definite version in the end.It's been 15 years since I saw the TVA last so honestly, but my feeling says it was as is and lightrays were only for bathing scenes.

>>275208901>discussion about TV censorship isn't interesting because I don't find it interestingWhat a dumbass answer but thanks for trying
>>275209024It's not censorship, that's just how things were in physical media sales era, do the anime and make scenes, and then for BD release enhance scenes with nipples, etc That's literally how it was for everything back then.Absolutely nothing to do with censorship back then.

Is Fuso Sea incident not translated fully? It's only 2 volumes...
>>275215790It's 2 volumes in length yes, most of the mango were.
>>275215812At least answer the question and don't give me false hope with nothingburger (You)'s
>>275215865Oh you meant the translation, I'm fairly certain it was fully translated somewhere fully given I linked it to friend year ago. I have it in english as physical copy myself.
>>275215919I found out it's licensed, but didn't find scans anywhere at least. Maybe I'll keep looking but kinda sucks if it's only physical

Fusou hasn't been very interesting, but I've enjoyed the other manga
>>275217310What's your favorite? I like Witches of Africa, One-Winged Witches, Contrail of Witches, and Noble Witches.
>>275217352I'm a sucker for Nogami manga so I especially liked the Africa ones where this cutie is present.Noble witches might be objectively best story-wise though.
>>275217393>Noble witches might be objectively best story-wise though.Yeah, it was fun. I hopped on expecting the normal Neuroi-of-the-week story that a lot of the manga has.
To add, I think my problem with Fusou is the setting really. 1937, China stuff and the title "incident" takes it so close to Manchurian hijinks that I am constantly expecting there to be something that serves even as a slight commentary. I know it's stupid because the topic is controversial, but I feel like they're not utilizing the setting at all. That and it feels to jump around more than the other narratives.
>>275217615I just thought the story was kind of boring. I don't really remember it. The only cool thing I liked about it was seeing a younger Mio, Keiko, and Tomoko.
>>275217708>I just thought the story was kind of boringWell that too lmao
>>275217739Another stupid thing I remember was I think the fucking Fuso navy almost killed its own Witches in the final battle for whatever reason lol. The stupidity of that just made me not like the Fuso Sea Incident.
witch road trip
>>275217799Where they going?
>>275217789Military does stupid things all the time, shooting your own folks is not the first time there nor last. That's fairly realistic really.
>>275213651This and Kotobuki have made me believe the best episodes easily are the ones where the cast gets shot down and makes a forced landing. Needs to be more of the stuff, really.
>>275217880now that you mention it, both of those episode are where my opinion on the shows dramatically improved
>>275217809They're gonna meet Karl, the emperor of Karlsland
>>275217994Who tf is that on the very left?
>>275217958It really is simple as that
>>275203387Jo!!
>>275218020Probably Nadia Popova from the last chapters of Contrail of Witches.
>>275218363>>275218020Cute
>>275197547>>275196507>>275198600Franchise is pretty dead. Fumikane is drawing porn because it pays and otaku culture shifted to allow for that (sorry purity oldfags). But at the same time, there's less demand for TnA shows like Strike Witches now. Season 3 downplays TnA a lot compared to to S1/2. If you want to appeal to people, you have to give them something the internet doesn't give them (i.e. interspecies reviewers/mahoako) or change orientation.The biggest signal it's not coming back is the lack of project development or merch though. It takes 2+ years for anime to get developed due to industry congestion, meaning it'd be 2027 before a sequel happens. Which would already be the longest break without any strike witches projects.Meanwhile the last big merch push was 4 years ago and it was much smaller than S1/2. The writing is on the wall.

What is your opinion about the comedy spinoff?
>>275232567I really liked it. The chibis are cute and seeing everyone interact with each other in a more positive setting without the Neuroi was fun.
>>275232567>What is your opinion about the comedy spinoff?Only (chibi?) comedy short I've actually enjoyed across all anime. It helps that most the jokes are funny and not just something they had to come as BD bonus.
>>275232567One of the best things to come out of the franchise.
>>275231037Is there an unclothed version of this? >>275232567Highly enjoyable and got some good laughs out of me. I need to rewatch it sometime.
>>275233448>Is there an unclothed version of this?I don't know, doesn't look like the usual porn game so I'm assuming it's from some licensed game
>>275235300Hikari is so cute! Here's one of my favorite drawings of her.

Will we have something as good as pic again?
I don't know if they even make these, but I really want a statuette of this.I think it's based on an actual statue in Rome.
>>275242535Ya, lotta things have been as good since then.>>275243077Silly answer I know but sculptors exist, just be ready to pay a lot.
>>275243224So it's based on "Angel with the Lance," one of the 10 sculptures on Ponte Sant'Angelo in Rome. I just think it looks amazing. I could get a custom miniature made, but I'm sure there are little replicas. Sorry for going on, here's a witch butt as apology.
>>275243330I love that doujin where Perrine uses her body to keep the fat, ugly old men funding the war.

The Wright Sisters exist instead of the Wright Brothers in the Strike Witches universe. That means the sisters screwed over the Strike Witches version of Charlie Taylor :(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlie_Taylor_(mechanic)>Charles Edward Taylor (May 24, 1868 – January 30, 1956) was an American inventor, mechanic and machinist. He built the first aircraft engine used by the Wright brothers in the Wright Flyer, and was a vital contributor of mechanical skills in the building and maintaining of early Wright engines and airplanes.>Taylor wanted to become a pilot and sought Wilbur and Orville to teach him. The Wrights, reluctant to lose Taylor's services to the world of exhibition flying, discouraged him.>[I] always wanted to learn to fly, but I never did. The Wrights refused to teach me and tried to discourage the idea. They said they needed me in the shop and to service their machines, and if I learned to fly, I'd be gadding about the country and maybe become an exhibition pilot, and then they'd never see me again.
